Now that Stabilize Mode has been working so brilliantly for about a year, and with the upcoming "New Acro" mode seeming to work very well, I think we may have something that can compete in the simple sport copter market.
But for some people, the full system is expensive, complicated and kinda scary, even if they only want to use it for Acro and Stab mode.
Does anybody else think there might be a market for a stripped down board, <$100, that is pretty basic. Just an AVR, MPU6000, and maybe a mag? It could have as little at 4 PWM outputs, and 5 inputs, or PPM only input. Expose a serial port for telemetry (could be a blue-tooth module). And that's about it.
Can the IMU V3 do it?
